The exhibition “Parallel Cities” has been extended until Saturday, March 23rd.
The contemporary art exhibition “Parallel Cities” invites the viewers to engage in a journey that transcends the boundaries of visual arts and literature at the Istituto Italiano di Cultura in New Delhi triggering an immersive space inspired by Italo Calvino’s timeless masterpiece, ‘Invisible Cities.’
